The 1900 proof was struck in approximately 2,262 proofs. The proof marks the beginning of a new century of American coinage. The Mint had been producing proof cents continuously since 1856. A half century of proof production had created a collector tradition that would continue without interruption through the Indian Head's final decade and into the Lincoln era.
